What is NeighborhoodTrainers?

Since 2009, the NeighborhoodTrainer community is for independent personal trainers to create an instant online presence to promote their business. We help match NYC personal trainers, pilates instructors, yoga instructors, nutritionists, and health coaches with people in New York City, and parts of New Jersey, looking for training services based on their specific needs and goals. It’s like online dating meets finding a fitness trainer.

What areas do you service?

NeighborhoodTrainers covers all five boroughs of Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island, and the Bronx. We have recently added parts of New Jersey, as well.

How does it work?

All NYC fitness professionals are invited to register, simply go to the registration page and fill in the information requested. Their is NO TECHNICAL SETUP necessary on your end at all.

The initial registration takes less than five minutes. Once you register, you can login to enter your certification information, select the neighborhood zip codes that you service and then click on the boxes outlining your services, experience, and rate information. You also have options to add some of your own background information, upload your photo, company logo, a sample video, pdf flyer, and link your personal website, as well as Facebook and Twitter.

You’ll be online in just a few minutes.

It is free for someone to search for you. It’s simple, if you are looking for a fitness trainer or instructor, simply enter your NYC zip code in the box above. Your search results will list all of the registered personal trainers and fitness instructors that service your area. You can click on their business profile to learn more about their skills and experience. If you like what you see, then you can send them an email directly from their profile page. If you have special criteria you need to address, you can also perform an advanced search.

How does it help me as a fitness professional?

NeighborhoodTrainers will help new clients find you. Which in turn makes you more money. People can search NeighborhoodTrainers 24/7 to find you, which is considerably longer hours than anyone wants to work finding new business. They can find you when you are training, sleeping, or eating. Achieve your business goals, while you are helping a client reach their fitness goals.

What is the cost?

NeighborhoodTrainers has two profile plans for you to choose from. For pricing and payment plan options, please visit the plan choices page.

Do I pay for new clients gained or leads?

No. You do not pay any commissions for new clients, nor are you charged for leads. Once someone contacts you on NeighborhoodTrainers, the interaction is between you and your potential client.

What do I get besides a profile?

While your profile can be a hub of all of your online and offline, marketing and advertising activities, NeighborhoodTrainers offers additional marketing avenues. For instance you can be a contributor to the monthly newsletter or blog, or participate in one of our many live events throughout the year. NeighborhoodTrainers allows you to link several of your own sites to your profile. You can add your own website, Facebook page, Twitter, page, and blog.

Is the site search engine optimized?

Yes! NeighborhoodTrainers is search engine optimized. We can be found on page 1 of Google for over 100 organic keyword search terms related to New York City personal training and fitness, such as “personal trainer NYC”, as well as for yoga and pilates. SEO is an ongoing, everyday task and the goal is to make sure people can find us, so they can find you.

I went for my assesement and I was really amazed how Anthony showed me the steps I needed to get my body in shape. He took me through a really good workout routine to get my body in shape. The next day I was little sore but it was a good feeling. Let me tell you, I will be going back to him because he made me realize how important it is to get in shape. So give him a call, email, text whatever you will be amazed. I know I was.
